A refined full-body profile portrait of a Dalmatian Pelican (Pelecanus crispus) standing proudly beside lush green foliage. Captured at 224mm with f/5.6, the shot highlights the soft, curly crest feathers on its head, the long slender bill, and the delicate grey-and-white plumage framed against a deep green backdrop.

Organisers hope extravagant attempt to transplant song contest will be a success

Thailand is about to get a glitz-infused injection of pop culture, with crews starting construction of a large stage in Bangkok as part of an extravagant attempt to transplant Eurovision to Asia.

Organisers have promised the world’s longest-running music competition will launch “a new chapter in Asia” next weekend, when 11 contestants from across the region will sing and dance for votes.

Elf jaar geleden kwam hij als vluchteling in Nederland aan. Zijn diploma’s lagen op de bodem van de Middellandse Zee maar hij wilde absoluut tandarts worden.

Je krijgt een paar cijfers cadeau, maar het grid van 9x9 moet foutloos ingevuld worden.

Reported in Kotaku. Elon Musk will cease producing the Cybertruck, an ugly vehicle that barely worked. Despite that, people still wanted them, and they became a magnet for ridicule. They showed up everywhere, spawning a genre of social media post that featured pictures of Cybertrucks in the wild with captions that were variations on "look at this asshole." They even showed up in Fortnite in which, like its real-world counterpart, the car was a buggy mess. More distressingly, the vehicle was involved in numerous fatal crashes in which victims' families allege that the truck's design resulted in their loved ones being locked inside as they burned alive.

More than 100 activists breached a Microsoft AI data center construction site in Amsterdam as part of coordinated protests against the rapid expansion of AI infrastructure. "These data centres are destroying our world. It's becoming uninhabitable because of all the resources they consume. That's why we're here today," protester Sam van der Beek said. Reuters reports: Activist groups have announced actions in 16 countries on Friday and Saturday, according to the "Stop Dirty Data Centers" coalition, which is rallying environmental groups and digital rights campaigns behind calls to pause large-scale construction. In Amsterdam on Friday, more than 100 activists gathered at the construction site of a Microsoft AI data centre, marching arm in arm before breaking into the site, climbing cranes, hanging balloons and dancing while police stood by. Some carried placards with messages reading: "Screw your datacenter."

Site owner Pure Data Centers, which plans to invest more than $1 billion and is backed by Brookfield-owned Oaktree, said it was committed to engagement with local stakeholders. "We respectfully ask those on site to leave safely and engage with us in dialogue about the development and any concerns they may have," it said. Other planned actions include a march in Dublin, a protest outside the parliament building in Warsaw, and a demonstration against a different Microsoft data centre in Denmark. [...] Stop Dirty Data Centers says it is not anti-progress or calling for existing data centers to be closed but that major construction should be halted until governments establish clearer rules.
